Seriously, I like the song though. Quite a bit.
It's okay, he's in Vermont. Some helpful bearded syrup maker will take him in and they'll discuss their feelings over hand-crafted beer.

In general I'm not sure I'm that keen on Enya, she can seem not too deep for this genre sometimes.


Anyway, here's something

Two sounds are basically guaranteed to truly annoy me. One of them is when someone says lol out loud in conversation. The other is about 99% of the new age music I've ever heard.

Nevertheless...



^ The vocals from these guys grate like nails on a chalkboard for me. When they just serve straight-up instrumentals like this though, they Ashram here always manage to pull off a really haunting, beautiful vibe majestically.



^ I just love these guys as well. Far from traditional new age, but the way this sound's all mixed up with flamenco and salsa really gets me every time.

I downloaded Ommadawn and it wasn't all that bad, though I can't say I would really go out of my way to listen to it again.

That's because she is awful. Sorry Janszoon!

Yes, that`s what I figured ! I like it too. In fact I just replayed it for the first time in ages to check my favourite track: number 7, Pastorale, is really exquisite.

I`m glad that Janszoon mentioned William Ackerman, whose style and record label are the twin signposts that ushered in New Age music, as far as I know,in the late '70's.
And while we were waiting for that to happen, what was there to listen to ? Well, John Fahey had a few kind of proto-New Age albums, like this one :


‪John Fahey - The Waltz That Carried Us Away And Then A Mosquito Came And Ate Up My Sweetheart (1971)‬‏ - YouTube

Other New Age pioneers included Vangelis, Eno and Tangerine Dream, though I`m sure I`m missing lots of others too. For instance, Steve Hillage, whose album Rainbow Dome Musick was the first album I bought with an unmistakably New Age title.
